I got the boat about a week ago, but due to issues with the carb (though they are still not fixed) hadn't been able to get out. I set the idle speed high so it wouldn't die and took it out one and only time before I took it out of the water last night.
i have to say that I loved it! the wake was insane! I had been wake boarding behind a 16' 1971 glastron before and it was alot of fun, this thing was worlds different! I bought a ski pylong from KIP but didnt put it up yesterday because i didnt want to push my luck... I was just happy it ran good...
Definatly needs the steering replaced and the carb fixed... it sucks at the high idle putting it into gear... and needing 2 hands to steer it was very inconvenient when trying to work the throttle as well. I only took a little water over the nose one time :eek:
we had 9 people out with us and the boat did good..
here is about the only pic we took of it. We had the rope hooked to the tow hook on the back of the boat:
Now the only problem is waiting until next year to take it out!
